    We need to take St. Peter Chrysologus as a model for our witnessing, and be able to tell our witness to Christ and the Church in less than a minute.

    July 30 2014 St Peter Chrysologus Today’s Gospel must be specially important to the Church, because we heard it on Sunday, and Monday, and again today.

    God formed us, shaped us, like a master potter. Do we trust Him? When He directs our path, do we make excuses why we can’t do it, or do we walk boldly along that path in faith? God didn’t create you to be the centerpiece on a display shelf… He created you as a clay pot to be useful for His kingdom!
